Due to heat issues tomorrow, 8/21/14, well will have practice at 6:00AM at the school track. We should finish by 7:15. Runners who can’t return home can shower at school. REMEMBER! You can only park in your assigned space, DON’T park anywhere else.

As announced at Time Trials this past Friday, the AlphaCrush Middle School Running Club is expanding in Roswell to better support RHS, local middle schools and runners in the area. This an option open to any young runners and families to train and prepare for high school.

Please see attached flyer for full details and visit www.alphacrush.org to register. First practice is 8/25 at 6pm at Roswell Area Park.

We have two new forms and one updated form which must be completed by all runners prior to racing. All three of these forms must be completed by all participants.

On the left side of the page you’ll see links. Go to the “Forms” link and print 2014 Concussion Awareness (this is updated and we have to complete this one again), Transportation Release (new), and GHSA Acknowledgement (new). Complete the forms and return them to Coach Evans at practice this week.

The GHSA Handbook is also included in the links on the left. Be sure to review that prior to signing your GHSA Acknowledgement form :)

Those runners who have not completed the forms and returned them to Coach by Thursday, and who are scheduled to run the Stage Races, will not be able to compete.

Additionally, the link, “Runner Ranking” has been updated with the information from the Time Trials.

Congratulations to all the runners Friday for their participation in our annual time trials and family picnic. For many runners this was their first taste of actual racing, and they performed well. Brandon Tardiff edged out Parker Roberts in the boys race for first and Sunshine Flamer outpaced a recovering Rachel VanAmburgh for the number 1 spot for the girls.
Thanks to all the parents who chipped in to help run off the race, distribute the practice packages, and provide food and drinks for the picnic. It made for a fun way to kick off the season.
